OpenSpace, a construction technology company specialising in reality capture and visual site intelligence, has unveiled new AI and spatial capabilities that provide field teams with continuous indoor location information and enable software agents to work with visual data from construction sites.
Presented at the company’s Waypoint 2026 customer event, the additions include AI Autolocation 2.0 with Live Location, a new Site Mode, voice-based site reporting, and an AI agent ecosystem built around visual and spatial construction data.
The announcement comes a year after OpenSpace introduced its Visual Intelligence Platform at Waypoint 2025, which brought its reality capture products together with tools for field workflows and project progress analysis.
Live Location extends OpenSpace’s indoor positioning technology
OpenSpace introduced AI Autolocation in 2025 as an indoor positioning technology for smartphones that does not require installed hardware, such as Bluetooth beacons.
AI Autolocation 2.0 builds on that technology with Live Location. While the earlier version could automatically place issues created on mobile at the corresponding location on a drawing, the new version is designed to show a user’s position continuously as they move around a project.
OpenSpace has previously explained that its Autolocation technology uses routine 360° captures to build a sensor map of a construction site. Smartphone sensor readings can then be matched against that map to determine location, with subsequent captures updating the underlying site information as construction progresses.
The new technology supports Site Mode, which OpenSpace previewed at Waypoint. It places a user’s live position on project drawings and BIM models, including when offline, so field teams can access information and address location-based issues.
OpenSpace also previewed AI Walk-and-Talk. The capability associates voice input and images with jobsite locations as a worker moves through the site, creating structured records of those observations.
One proposed workflow is daily reporting, with information collected during a walk compiled into an end-of-day report.
The latest additions follow the general availability of OpenSpace Field in February 2026. Field enables users to create and manage punch-list items, observations, and issues on smartphones and integrates bidirectionally with Procore and Autodesk Construction Cloud.
Earlier spatial AI prototypes lead into agent ecosystem
OpenSpace also announced its Agent Ecosystem, intended to give AI agents access to visual and spatial information from construction sites.
The agents are being developed to work with real-world data that has been captured, organised and mapped to its location within a project. OpenSpace identified daily logs, routine inspections and punch-list work as workflows it is exploring.
The company also said that agents in partner systems could use OpenSpace via MCP.
Work on spatially aware agents predates the latest announcement. In September 2025, OpenSpace disclosed early-stage R&D and prototypes combining its Autolocation technology with AI agents.
One experiment used a worker’s location to surface nearby information from OpenSpace, Procore or Autodesk Construction Cloud. Another retrieved historical imagery of the room in which the worker was standing, including images captured before drywall installation.
OpenSpace continued developing the idea in 2026. In April, it said it was building an agent sandbox around spatially indexed reality data, with customers asking agents questions such as which work was on track, what was slipping, and whether open issues had been closed.
At Waypoint 2026, OpenSpace said it was working with a select group of Early Access customers to develop and deploy agents for construction workflows.
The company reports that it has analysed imagery from more than 110,000 construction projects, covering over 77 billion sq ft, supported by more than 500 million expert-verified labels and descriptions.
OpenSpace Track adds quantity and predictive tools
The Waypoint announcement also included enhancements to OpenSpace Track, its system for verifying installed work and comparing actual construction progress with planned milestones.
The new functionality covers quantity tracking, mark-ups, and predictive analytics. Track can also identify schedule risks, forecast future performance, and assess progress across multiple projects.
OpenSpace also announced a Track API, enabling customers to pull progress data into ERP systems, business intelligence dashboards and project management tools.
The company said some customers are using Track and the API to support faster subcontractor payments, using visual records as a common reference for completed on-site work.
Track was part of the Visual Intelligence Platform introduced in 2025, alongside OpenSpace Field and the company’s reality capture products. It was designed to use site data to validate work in place, compare actual progress with planned milestones, and provide progress information to project stakeholders.
Several of the capabilities showcased at Waypoint 2026 are not yet generally available. OpenSpace said it would provide further details on availability and participation in Early Access and Beta programmes in the coming months.
